	abstract = {<p>Coastal zone of the Ithaki Island consists mainly of calcareous rocks (\&gt;80\%) of the Ionian geotectonic zone and secondarily of Neogene sequences, flysch and Quaternary deposits. Due to the presence of carstic limestones, vegetation is poor with the {\textquoteleft}makia{\textquoteright} type of vegetation to cover almost the half of the coastal land. In terms of coast formation, four types of coasts have been identified, according to Shepard{\textquoteright}s genetic classification; these are coasts of: tectonic origin, terrestrial deposition, subaerial erosion and marine erosion. The small coastal towns and villages occupy only the 3,1\% of the coastal land being developed primarily on Quaternary deposits and in areas with small (10\%) topographic slope. Beaches suitable for touristic activities are present within protected small bays and usually are associated with the presence of fluvial deposits reworked by the existed wave activity.</p>},
